No i ain't impressed by none of that...dude was speaking FACTS....it's the business homie...it's just the way it is...

So hip-hop is suppose to be about the "struggle"...not about being successful?...or a combination of rising from the struggle to achieve success?

U can get the fukk on out of here with that...
You're part of the problem fakkit....

I'm sorry but I had hot 97 on a few weeks ago and I kid you not all they played was Drake, Wayne, Nicki, Mercy and some other artist featuring Wayne. Oh and they kept playing pop that by French Montana. When I say they kept playing it, it was like they would play the order of songs I just mentioned then they would play French. I'm not making this up or exaggerating in the least bit. That's honestly how it was.

From Slap Fest, to shootings, to payola, to summer jam controversies, to beef with rival stations, To racist comments, to dj's egos, to Angie Martinez blocked nasal passage etc. Hot 97 is THE cancer of Hip Hip that needs to be removed. No more excuses from Ebro or anyone else. Enough is enough.

Dude said it best... Im guilty of it too... NYC only loves artists when theyre struggling

Crossover... goodbye

I'm glad dude broke it down like this... very informative. Ultimately it comes down to the money, which I can't even blame him for. We don't support anyone beyond YT hits but we want businesses to throw away their profits to accomodate our tastes. It ish what it ish

I don't listen to the radio for that very reason on how Ebro broke that shyt down...mainstream shyt gets played cuz the masses keep listening to it and keep requesting it..it's common sense bruh..

I stay listening to Pandora/Spotify..custom playlist of music of my OWN taste...

It's the truth bruh bruh..:yeshrug:

He had very compelling arguments, to conclude; the game is all fukked up :manny:
He's basically saying that New York rappers have to blow up like people from small towns, through the internets. But I don't really believe him when he says that someone from Miami will get the whole south and someone from NY only will get the Tri-state area.

Atlanta records play Atlanta shyt, and then it picks up in different cities throughout the south and the country. Why? They are making catchy records. Unlike Joey Badass or Action Bronson etc. Movement type of rappers are not getting on radio until their movement has blown up i.e. 2 Chainz, Mac Miller or Kendrick Lamar. No matter where you're from. You won't see atlanta rappers without catchy possible hit songs getting on radio either.

In the end, if a rapper has a catchy song that caters to a lot of people (birdbrains, hiphop heads, average joes, women, girls etc) he will get radioplay.

Bottom line is shyt won't change because women don't wanna hear no fukking Sean Price. That don't move bishes and bishes control radio. Tell ya sister or ya woman to turn off the radio when garbage comes on and maybe you can make a change.

So if everybody on sites like this got together and started flooding Hot97 with tweets and emails to play certain established artists songs (Sean P, Killer Mike, Joey Bada$$, etc.) do you think they would cave some??

Or would they just go ignored?
